The Yale Russian Chorus is the oldest singing group in the New World dedicated to the music of Russia and nearby countries. The YRC was founded 1953 at the height of the Cold War. Founders: Denis Mickiewicz and George Litton. Singers join while students at Yale, and many stay active throughout their lives. Every year or so we hold a major concert in which students and alumni sing together. Many alumni also join the students on tours to Russia. Without a doubt, each of us had our own motivation to join the Russian choir. But we offer you a quote from one of the members of our choir, which unites us to some extent and explains a little the meaning of the choir in our lives: “Singing the music of the YRC in the style we sang it, was an antidote to the intellectualism that got many of us into Yale in the first place, but that could be so restrictive to the heart and spirit“. The singers are not Russians, or emigrants from Russia, but are students and former students who share a passion for the music and a belief in the power of music to build connections between people of different countries. Thanks to YouTube, we are pleased to share these recordings with online audiences around the world who share our passion for this music. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE! We have toured Russia and Eastern Europe many times, and we really hope that we will be able to hit the road again when the time comes 🌿 ➞ To support our mission of choral excellence and cultural engagement, visit #YRC #YaleRussianChorusAlumniAssociation #йельскийхор #хор #choir #chorus #музыка #music #slavicmusic #славянскаямузыка #russianmusic #русскаямузыка #yale #yaleuniversity #американцыпоютрусскиепесни
